well, I obviously didn't get into Israel. When they got my flight from London to Tel Aviv canceled I hopped on a flight to Sharm El Sheikh at the tip of the Sinai penisula in Egypt. Then I hired a taxi to the Israel border crossing at Taba. But when I announced my purpose was to travel to Palestine to meet with friends, Israel's answer was "NO". Take a look at this article that describes the greeting the activists who did make it into Ben Gurion Airport got: http://972mag.com/derfner-2017-872011/ .
people don't realize how much hate is boiling over in this bigoted theocracy. it's not just a small group of ultra-right politicians setting a course of intolerance and oppression.
